Wow, forgot to post here... I'm currently on writing my diploma in control engineering and since I'm going for a career in research I'm basically an university-live-in. I get out only to go to the gym, since I'm an active kick-boxer, training at least 5 times a week. I also do a million of other things, like comic book reviews and (latest hobby addition) a bento blog. Right now, spare time is a great luxury, I hope that this might change one day! Though in academia it probably won't...

I first saw bento in Sailor Moon when I was a child, and I really don't remember how I actually got the idea as a grown-up. I don't eat breakfast and the lunch break at my faculty is at half past twelve. I tend to forget to eat after that (also there isn't really much you can get at the cafeteria that is lactose-free) and arrive at practice famished. So I've started making bento to insure additional calorie intake. And then I got the bento fever - forever looking at pretty boxes, taking more times to arrange my food that to cook it, well, you know what I mean. The good thing when one's constantly working is that you don't have time to spend the money you earn, this way I've got enough left to actually get the bento stuff I want from ebay!
